A CHASTITY Firepl ace.

A Southside physician has capped
the climax of suggestions. He is
something of an artist in modelling in
clay, and after he got his office sup
piled with natural gas he made a cast
of a skull. The thing is horribly nat
ural, even to the sutures across the
skull, and one front tooth knocked out.
This is set up in the crate in such a
way that the blush crimson flames Of
the turning gas steal through the
eyes and nostrils and flicker playfully
around the ghastly jaws. Little jets
of flame flash through between the
sunken jaws and tighten up the bony
countenance, heated to a white-rec
heat in a manner horribly suggestive
of other fires, which are said to burn
| but not consume.

AN EXCITING RIDE.

SLATINGToN, Pa, Feb. 3.-Last
Monday night DR.. Joseph p. Engle.
man, an ex-member of the legislature
from Northampton county, who lives
at Cherryville, FIVE miles from here,
went to Walnutport to see a patient.
He started home at a late hour, and

The doctor stopped his horse, and the
person was soon sitting in the carriage
beside him. In short time the doctor
discovered that his companion was q
man in female attire. In order 70 a.
void suspicion the doctor chatted pleas
antly with the man, and during the
conversation suddenly dropped his
whip on the road. 81 have just lost
my whip," said the doctor. wont
you please get it My horse is at
times unmanageable, and I am afraid
to leaye the carriage" Without sus--
pecting the trick the man alighted TO
get the whip, at the same time saying
"Wait for me don't driYe off," Once
out of the clutches of the unknown the
doctor soon had the horse running at
full speed and the man far in the rear.
Just as the doctor was about to con-
gratulate himself on his escape hefound
lady's muff on the seat containing
loaded six-shooter, and few minutes
later met two more persons in female
attire, both of whom gazed into lis car
riage as he approached them. The par
ties separated'as he neared them, each
taking a position on the sides OF the
road. Believing these people to be con-
federates of the man who got of after
the whip, the doctor urged his horse,
and was soon beyond their reach. The
muff and revolver are still in the doc
tors possession. The doctor is OF the
opinion that the parties saw him drive
to Walnutport in the morning and
waited for him to return. either for the
purpose of robbing or assassinatlng
him.

Peculiarities Of Woman Shown In
Her Expense Accounts.

1t is touching sight to see wo-
man begin to make up her expenses,
having firmly resolved to put down
every cent she spent, SO as to find out
how to economize and find out where
all the money goes. Procuring a
small book, she makes a due entry,
and on Monday after the first Satur-
day in which her husband brings
home his pay she carefully tears the
margin of newspaper and with a
blunt pencil strikes a trial balance
something in this way: John brought
me home $48.49 and $I.43 | had is
1898 and 81. 90 / lent Mrs. Dixon is
$5O93, but hold on, l ought not to
enter that, because when she returns
it it'll go down. That was $40 SO,
and what have | done with that ?
Then she puts down the figures, leav-
ing out the items to save time-a pro-
cess that enables her to leave out the
most of the items to where a round
sum is involved, on the supposition
that they have already been put
down. AS this Six dollars and four
teen cents for meat, and 10 cents for
celery, and 10 cents on the new street
car line, and a bad five cent piece !

dollar which would make even change
and | couldn't, because the smallest |
had was a quarter-and 1915 for
mending Kate's shoes, which is the
last money that shoemaker ever gets
from me, and 10 cents for celery--no,
I did put that down. Finally she
sums up her trial balance sheet, and
finds that it toots up SOAPS, which is
about SIS more than she had original
ly. She goes over the list several
times and checks it carefully, but all
the items are correct, and she is just
about in despair when her good angel
hints that there may be o possible
mistake in addition. Acting upon
the suggestion she foots up the col
umn and finds that the total is $44.28
and that according to the principles
of the arithmetic she ought to have
S5.65. Then she counts her cash sew
eral times, the result varying from
S1.4O up to S1.97, but then she hap
pilv discovers that she has been mis-
taking 50 gold piece for a cent, and
remembers that she gave the baby
trade dollar to cut its gums with. On
the whole she has come within sc
cents of a balance, and that, she says,
is close enough, and she enters in one
line of her account book 'Dr.--By
household expenses" so much ; and is
very happy till she remembers, just
before going to bed, that she has omit
ted 81 for her husbands hat.
